People just don't get it , the X6 is not a 4x4. If you need to crawl over boulders buy a jeep ( or if 4x4 must be shaped like a box a rover). X6 is basically a 5200 pound sporty car, will not call it a sports car because you could not drive something that weighs this much and call it a sports car with a straight face.

I'm amazed that the "borg" mentality has crept into the auto world, were everything that has an engine must fit into some classification that has been determine by people that appointed themselves as the only ones that can "bless" a car as being correct, ya bite me.

I don't consider Top Gear a serious car show but it's entertaining. And surprise a rover can go up the hill with truck tires on it but the X6 can't with performance tires. Even the guys in the states that live where it snows change out the performance tires.
